What is the Russian Scholars Program?
The ExxonMobil Russian Scholars Program is a competitive scholarship program which provides highly qualified students from Russia with a fully-funded scholarship towards the completion of a Master’s degree in the geosciences at a college or university in the United States or the United Kingdom. The program is funded by ExxonMobil and administered by the Institute of International Education (IIE). Some students may qualify for the opportunity to apply their skills through internships with ExxonMobil as an approved part of their academic program. Through this unique scholarship opportunity, ExxonMobil aims to contribute to Russia by helping to develop highly skilled and culturally adept individuals. Recipients of the scholarship will demonstrate a history of academic excellence, research and technical aptitude, as well as exceptional cultural adaptability. Although applicants do not need to be currently residing in Russia, they must be Russian citizens with a valid Russian passport.
